Published November 14, 2026

Edge Rizz Interlinked Test, also known as Edge Rizz Dog, is a TikTok audio parody of the Within Cells Interlinked baseline scene from Blade Runner 2049, with K's clinical dialogue swapped for brain rot slang like edge, rizz, gooner and sigma. TikToker @notmr.bigchops69 posted the first edit on February 28, 2024, and within a week a Revive App remix starring a talking dog head made the audio one of early 2024's most-used TikTok sounds.

Overview

Edge Rizz Interlinked Test, also called Edge Rizz Dog, rides on the audio from the Within Cells Interlinked post-trauma baseline test in Blade Runner 2049, the scene where Ryan Gosling's K rapid-fires word associations at an off-screen interviewer. In the parody, the interviewer's clinical prompts are rewritten as questions about edging streaks, gooning and feeling sigma to sigma, and K's one-word responses are replaced by a deadpan chant of edge and rizz that closes on the Baby Gronk rizzed up Livvy Dunne line12.

The joke works because the original scene is already a tense monotone of repeated words, so swapping in 2024 brain rot slang makes the Blade Runner delivery sound like a Discord server reading its own vocabulary aloud. The best-known version is the Edge Rizz Dog edit by @dawgalawgnews, which uses TikTok's Revive App filter to paste a floppy-eared talking dog head over the actor and deliver the full test to camera3.

TikTok user @notmr.bigchops69 posted the original video, titled Edge Gooner 42069, on February 28, 2024. The clip reworks the Within Cells Interlinked interrogation from Blade Runner 2049 by rewriting the test questions around edging, gooning and sigma behavior, with the single-word answers switched from the film's cells, interlinked, dreadfully to edge and rizz1. The post ran up more than 5 million plays and over 785,000 likes in its first month, according to Know Your Meme's documentation of the trend3.

How It Spread

The audio took off a week later, when TikToker @dawgalawgnews reposted the full Edge Rizz Interlinked Test on March 6, 2024, using the Revive App to swap the human face for a talking dog head reciting every line. That version passed 6 million plays and 1.3 million likes inside a month, overtaking the original as the trend's signature clip2.

Shorter and remixed edits followed. On March 19, 2024, @therealbadmann cut down the dog video into a condensed version that reached over 4 million plays and 781,000 likes within two weeks4. A week later, on March 26, @idk_.2222 paired the Edge Rizz Dog audio with the Why You So Quiet? What's On Your Mind? template, picking up roughly 925,000 plays and 161,000 likes in three days5.

Other TikTokers lip-synced and reacted to the audio through March 2024, including an @alecjer0me reaction edit posted alongside the original wave6. The sound sat inside a wider brain rot slang moment on TikTok, overlapping with the popularity of terms like sigma, gooner and the Baby Gronk / Livvy Dunne joke that caps every performance of the test3.
